Les Phillip, Like Moses, Has Been Called By God

Inspired by the earlier post about Les Phillip, who is running for Congress in Alabama, and his ad declaring that President Obama "played with terrorists" and allowed his "america-hating pastor to baptize his children," I started to watch some of the other videos Phillip has posted to his YouTube page ... including this one which comes across like something you'd see at a corporate conference, until the music fades away around the 3:30 mark as Phillip explains that he decided to run for Congress after watching President Obama's State of the Union address and seeing more than half of the audience "clapping for things that myself, my buddies, and most people in uniform were willing to die for, to prevent."

So upset was Phillip by the spectacle that he retreated to the bathroom where he prayed to God to do something to stop America's descent into socialism, to which God responded by calling on Phillip to run for Congress ... just like Moses in front of the burning bush.

And then out comes Mike Huckabee to declare Phillip a man who will be "one of our national leaders in the Republican party for a long time to come":
